Made to measure tailoring

We create sharp, made to measure tailoring, to enhance your own, personal style

Made to Measure Tailoring

What is made to measure?

Made to measure tailoring generally refers to a modified block. A generic company may take a 40″ chest pattern then lengthen sleeves, jacket length and not much else.

At Alexandra Wood, made to measure differs in that we can modify literally everything, from shoulder width to sleeve pitching.

We offer a choice of half canvas constructions, full canvas and unstructured, but as we don’t expect you to know what these mean – we fully educate you, so you understand the decisions you are making.

Needless to say, knowing how to create the right made to measure suit with all these modifications takes skill and knowledge; it isn’t something done by simply handing someone a measuring tape.

We offer appointments in Savile Row and Bishops Stortford and also offer personal appointments to your office by request. (London only)

We offer flexible appointment times, so if a time that suits you (Pardon the pun) isn’t available please do contact us.
